We had lots of fun painting bird houses for our local feathered friends this week.
Using yummy smelling all natural paints from Clementine Art and some funky pre-made wood bird houses we picked up recently we got stuck into an afternoons fun of pattern making and serious paint splodging.
The paints are great. Hand down - of course - it is fabulous that Clementine Art makes these paints with all natural ingredients, they're completely free of chemical dyes and petrochemicals - just the kind of stuff I like my kids playing with. It also means I don't mind being lazy and using a kitchen plate and egg spoons as artists equipment. But the Interior Designer in me also loves how the set is comprised of a balanced palate, made with Mayan mineral earth pigments, the colours are beautiful and work so great with each other.
Today one of us was a master blender of colour,
While another was working much more meticulously on her pattern making.
No matter how we came to our finished creations we were really proud of our results and just couldn't wait to hang them up outside.
Hope the birdies enjoy them as much as we've enjoyed their Spring songs!
And hope your having a great day too!
